As a general rule, looks aside, you want to run the smallest wheels that will fit over the brakes. Less unsprung weight and/or reduced moment of inertia, cheaper wheels, cheaper tires, better ride (tire dependent) etc.
While certainly not for everyone, there are many more reasons to run the smallest wheels possible than there are to not.
